I agree with this, and would add that I do not think Macron is even an especially skilled representative of the status quo. I hope I'm wrong, but I predict his administration will be inept in a way that makes FN more popular, not less, much as Hollande's administration was.

I'm relieved, because there was one person running who was less suited to the office than Macron, and she didn't get elected, but that's a bit different than celebrating.
